most of the people here are not behaving like a martial artist, and if they loved their art they would encourage you to study. Work hard, try hard and you'll be fine. Excericse has more affect on...

I don't know any wrestling or grappling styles, but from what I've seen in the UFC, if I had a knife anywhere on me, even if I was in some kind of hold, I would still be able to pull it out and stab...

Dude I'm a TKD practioner, and I can say this about TKD. It don't do ****, when your in the back seat of a small car going up against a guy twice your size.

I can't watch the clips, but the thread starter mentioned it looked more movieish. can anybody describe the sparring clips? Also is this style in close like wing tsung?

I'm curious. Maybe some of you could tell me what you think.
If a Kung Fu practioner spent a lot of time sparring Jujitsu practioners, could you get pretty good at avoiding the fight becoming a...

I agree with everything you said there. And in my own experience I studied TKD a while. I'm not even a blcakbelt, but anyways, I eventually started sparring my friends, who were had not training at...

The whole point isn't that they can't obey the rules of the ring. It's that they can't win without breaking those rules. It puts them at a disadvantage, because they train for a different...

actually I was just reading the other day, how the UFC was almost banned completely, and because of politics they added a bunch of rules to the fight, and they try to mostly recruit muathui(I cant'...

Your post is very honest, and wise. Vash did his whole O M F G. and then gave a deatiled description of how Bruce Lee's strengths and weaknesses, and said he was an average fighter. I tried to quote...

he's probably just laughing at these freaks who have no possible way of knowing this. Unless they trained with him personally or saw him in an actual streetfight, they are just talking out of their...

this is why musicains should concentrate on music, instead of "look at me. Trick or treat"

In ultimate fighting they are not allowed to strike in the back or the back of the head.

Are they allowed to hit the neck in any way?

Well of course the number of opponents was one of the major reasons, but I'm assuming that being in a bar had something to do with it as well. Bars tend to be crowded with chairs and pool tables and...

Well I wont really disagree with what you said. I know that TKD is horribly incomplete. It has one strength which is very strong, and then a ton of weakness which are severe.
One of my instructors...

No I'm not saying that. If a TKD practicioner is forced to begin a fight with the other person right up on them, they will lose. I know that. But the style does have a lot to offer. If your on the...

Did the students at your school mainly rely on round kicks, or push kicks? Did you sparr all the time? Most schools produce students who are very good at forms, but not real good at sparring. It's...

some of you guys need to get over yourselves really. There are a lot of schools and a lot of students who make TKD look bad. I don't deny that. But I gurantee that if one of my insturctors kicked...

I happen to be a TKD practicioner. Everything he said is true. Our kicks are heavily chambered. And one of the differences between TKD and other styles is that one kick is so powerful that you...

thanks guys but I wasn't looking for a biology lesson. I was talking about the differences between those two styles of Kung Fu.

I don't know what I would do, but something to increase your chances is pretend to look at something behind them with a surprising look on your face, they will wonder what is, and when they turn...

Is there really a difference between the two?

aside from the comedy, how are the fight scenes? Are they any good? Are they all Matrixy fake? I personally don't like how a lot of martial arts movies have been all matrixy fake for the last few...

He's very correct.

thanks that was exactly the explanantion I was looking for. TKD kicks are known for their power.

It's possible the mean look, was actually a look of confusion. why are all these people standing like this looking at me. It's possible he's one of those guys from the war a long time ago who just...
